Figure 2. Use of Recommended, Optional, and Not-Recommended Care.

Figure 2

Urologists in the lowest quintile of guideline compliance had the lowest use of recommended care (Figure 2a), and the highest use of not-recommended care (Figure 2c). Urologists in the low compliance group had the highest use of optional care (Figure 2b). However, extensive variations in the use of individual tests were found. As examples, urinalysis use stable across the low to highest guideline compliance groups, whereas cystoscopy use declined from the lowest to highest guideline compliance groups.
